Dear Parents and Students,

Exciting news! Laurier is hosting its 1st -ever Read-A-Thon!

A read-a-thon is a fundraising event where students read to gather pledges or donations from family and friends for the school. It’s like reading with a purpose! The funds raised will enrich student learning with valuable materials.

This event not only benefits our school but is also incredibly rewarding for our kids! It offers a wonderful chance for our children to take pride in their contributions. We encourage you to assist your child in setting and achieving their goals, fostering both academic growth and a sense of accomplishment.

Details

The Sir Wilfrid Laurier PAC (Parent Advisory Council) is kicking off our 2025 Direct Appeal Campaign. This year, we are seeking to raise $10,000 in hopes of offering  sports equipment, technology upgrades and other learning supports for our school. Parents typically donate $50 - $100 for each child at Laurier, equivalent to $5-$10 per month of the school year. 

This year’s direct appeal aims to provide:

• Classroom Support: PAC provides funding each year to teachers for programs and supplies to supplement what is provided by the VSB.  
• Technology: Continuing efforts to upgrade technology available as a learning tool in the classroom.  This year, the PAC has been requested to fund two tablets per classroom, allowing teachers to offer differentiated learning.
• Sports Equipment: The PAC has been requested to fund new basketball hoops near the South building to offer more playing courts
• The PAC has also received requests from Laurier teachers for continued support of the SOAR Committee, garden supplies, and new learning commons furniture in the South Building.

We realize everyone’s financial situation is different - you do not have to contribute. If you are able to donate, any amount is welcome and greatly appreciated! Friends and family can donate, too.
​
